quick electrical question. please help

[kreator34]

so, this is 'your new place'. What is it, exactly? An office space? I can't make much from the photos and your descriptions. It's hard to say if you have enough to do a grow. If indeed all you have is the fuse box in the third photo then you got nothing to work with

Costco sells solar panels.

That, and a quiet generator for the evening supplemental might get ya through.
You'll need one helluva yield to break even though.

Feelin' any less sad?

Good luck,

here's the quick and best answer. Call an electrical contractor and tell 'em your opening a spa with (4) 1000 watt tanning booths, etc, etc. and see if you have enough capacity. If no, ask him or her what you need to do. We can't tell you anything from those fuzzy, dark photos of nothing, let alone know if it's 'connected' or not. So very, very sorry. Now I'm sad too.

Howzit, Shove?

There ya go, gettin' all pragmatic.
It's the best advice.
But it's got no pizzaz!

Now, if you were to purchase a used volvo, rip out the engine, rig a series of pulleys to 10 alternators, then run the 120V DC through an inverter . . .
Much mo' fun than doing it right, yah?

Jus' trin' to cheer a brudder up.
